FAQS

Got a question? You'll find answers to the most common ones below. If you don't see what you're looking for, get in touch — we're always happy to help.


Orders & Shipping

How are orders shipped?

All orders are shipped via FedEx or DHL. We offer free shipping on all orders over $100. Delivery is typically fast — most international orders arrive within 3–7 business days.

Can I include a gift message?

Absolutely. Leave your personalized message in the Special instructions for seller field at checkout and we'll include a handwritten gift note with your order.


Pillows & Covers

Do the pillow covers come with inserts?

No — our listings are for the pillow cover only. Inserts are not included. This is standard practice for handmade textile covers and lets you use your preferred fill.

Are inserts available separately?

Yes. We can provide inserts filled with 100% new pure fiber — a great option for those with allergies or who simply prefer a specific fill. Contact us for details and pricing.

How do I wash a pillow cover?

Hand wash in cool water with a phosphate-free, gentle detergent. Hang to dry and iron if needed. Do not tumble dry — heat can shrink the fabric and affect the colors.

Who makes the pillows?

Every piece is handmade by our team in Konya and Istanbul, Turkey. No machines, no shortcuts — just skilled hands and traditional techniques passed down through generations.


Rugs & Textiles

Are the rugs one of a kind?

Yes. Every rug in our collection is a vintage or antique handmade piece — completely unique. Once it's gone, it's gone. We source directly from Turkey and Central Asia, and each piece is carefully inspected before listing.

Do you have a care guide for rugs?

We do. Visit our Vintage Rug Care Guide for detailed instructions on vacuuming, stain removal, deep cleaning, and storage.

What size rug do I need?

Sizing is one of the most common questions we get. We've written a full guide: How to Choose the Right Rug Size — covers every room with exact measurements.
